Tunesday Tuesday!

It's A Flock, Not A Gaggle
A Flock Of Seagulls

Remember the 80's and the New Wave movement in music? "Yes" I was there in the thick of it, I was in High School after all.

Do you recall the most famous seagulls of all A Flock Of Seagulls? Well their biggest hit I Ran, not to be confused with Iran, has been, well, running through my mind of late. 

"I walk along the avenue, I never thought I'd meet a girl like you, Meet a girl like you"

Fa la la la la...

Thus I bequeath those who will find this nostalgic, and those who will be going Hmmmmmmm with this classic 80's type of ditty.

That's correct I said "ditty" because it rhymes with, kitty!

Gotcha!

Run with Seagulls after the jump!

Monday Motivation

I'm Bad!
Cameron Diaz

Anyone catch the movie Bad Teacher starring Cameron Diaz? Bueller? I did with my then BF and found it quite amusing. It popped into my writing mind this ayem and is what inspired today's Monday Motivation.

While I toil away the hours memorizing for a test. "Yes" that's correct minions yours truly is storing info in his computer brain via text. Thus it made me think about teachers and such. The good ones, not the bad ones, but whilst ruminating on the good ones Bad Teacher popped into my consciousness. Because it was funny, Cameron Diaz was great in it & even the lamest of teachers can teach you a lesson. They make the good ones stand out.

Being as that our public education system is under fire I would like to give a hat tip and a high five to all those teachers who care. I had a few of them and they really shaped certain aspects of who I am today. I can only hope kids now have the same kind of caring individuals I did to help guide them.

Oh "Yes" I had a a couple of teachers I would have liked to wish into the corn field, and some that did their job but were not particularly inspiring. But you take the good you take the average and try to laugh at the bad, copy?

Anyway it's the good teachers that are giving me life and Monday Motivation today. Thanks for the kick in the ass to keep on keeping, and werk!

Inspiration

These Legs Were Made For Walking
Selma Blair & David Lyons

Some days, you know the ones where you need a little something to inspire you, make you that much more motivated? Well that day is here for me today. I'm not in a bad mood or place, but I could use some extra inspiration.

Here it is in the form of actress Selma Blair who is fighting MS (Multiple Sclerosis) -  She was photographed out and about in Los Angeles on a stroll with her guy David Lyons, seizing the day and enjoying the sun.

While some days are better then others, MS is a daily battle, one that Selma doesn't let get her down. Her courage and strength to live each moment to the fullest is truly inspiring.

So get out there and get your inner Selma Blair on and grab life by the ______ the blank is yours to fill in!

Michael's Musings

I'm Alive, So Alive...
Michael Shinafelt

"I'd rather be hated for who I am, than be loved for who I am not" - Kurt Cobain 

Today would have been Kurt Cobain's 53 Birthday. "Yes" I am a Nirvana fan. It took me a while to get on board, but when I did I was hooked. Translation: when I actually took the time to really listen to their music, rather than sort of engage, I then discovered it's brilliance.

I'm glad that I'm still around to enjoy them, time to sound off minions!

FYI - I possess he gift of creative revenge when I'm very angry

Today I am thankful for the Foo Fighters, because I have never been threatened by a Foo. That means they are doing their job 😃

Gently kiss the light

A friend asked if I think the Denise Richards/Brandi Glanville hook-up on the upcoming season of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills is a story that was done for ratings. My Magic 8 Ball says "Most Definitely"

Plant your flag in my mouth...

What if one day your dog said "Nobody is ever going to believe you" and then never spoke again???

Make lying wrong again

No matter your candidate of choice I think we can agree that the world needs more eggplants 

Woman Crush of the Week - Cindy Crawford...Just Because...

You want to show that special someone the very depths of your soul, but your competition has cocaine and Metallica tickets, discuss

Christian Bale just ran naked through my mind

For your safety & protection there will be a five minute blackout

I wonder what the guy who was punching the back of the airplane seat is doing right now?

Does anyone remember Ring Around The Rosie?

Hump Day & Chill

Sexy Over 60!
Greg_DC

With a lot of focus on body positivity and ageism of late here is a Hump Day & Chill that addresses both, in the most delightful way! Woot! 

Let me present to you 61 year old model (who will appear nude, before your very eyes) Greg_DC photographed by MW Photo MD.

Greg is a role model, proving it's never too late to try something new and that you're never too old to strip down before a camera.

His journey is an interesting one, and I highly recommend you check out this crisply written, insightful piece by Tye Briggs via his Favorite Hunks & Other Things blog.

Being 54 and always up for a new challenge I relate to not wanting to get into the some ole routine day after day...just say no to ruts!

So follow his example of adventure and see what Greg has to offer. "Yes" I command you to give him a Hump Day & Chill salute! I know you get my drift, so let go and do it like a Rock Star!

Jump on Greg at the link below, you know how to below don't you? Just put your lips together and...
